"If you work best in an environment where everyone is being very productive (or at least looks like it), try working at Rivers and Roads in Edgewater. This national park-themed cafe is very close to Loyola University (camping lanterns hang from the ceiling and there's a portait of Smokey Bear), which means that it’s common to find students studying, working on group projects, and typing like they're competing in a Hackathon. They have some great bagels from Steingold's, pastries from Publican Quality Bread, as well as giant cookies and quiches that are baked in house." - John Ringor
